"This is Vol. 3 (only) from Charles Dickens' personal library at Gadshill Place. The book was printed in 1845, but Dickens' address label dates to 1870. The book has the Ex Libris label with Dickens' distinctive lion, and an address label. The book itself is only in fair shape as it has some staining on the opening inside cover and is frayed and worn. It does, however, have all its pages and is not in pieces. The main attraction here is the provenance of the book, being personally owned by the 19th century's greatest (certainly most famous) English novelist—one of the truly great novelists of all time, East or West. I like to imagine that he held it and read it. I am unsure of how large of a library of books he owned."
Not listed in any other source of Dickens's Library, however, it has Dickens's bookplate and regular label. See https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/book-charles-dickens-personal-library-1730728267
